Custom Folder Structure
You can now create your own document library structure within SharePoint for storing documents/attachments with this latest feature. Earlier, there were limitations for creating customized folder structure. But now you can customize both library structure as well as the record folder structure in SharePoint site. The document library structure can be customized in the following ways - By Period (periodically), By Starting Character (alphabetically), or Custom (based on any particular field name).
For example, suppose you want to store half yearly CRM data of Accounts entity in SharePoint. Here, you can create a periodical document library for six months and save documents/attachments related to that period in it. All you have to do is set ‘Period type’ to ‘X Month’ and ‘Duration’ to ‘6’ for Account entity. Further, you can also customize the record folder structure in SharePoint by using logical name, text or a combination of both logical name and text.
Now based on this setting a half yearly document library will be created in SharePoint for whichever Account entity record created for that particular period.
In the same way, the document library structure can be customized alphabetically or based on any particular field name in CRM records. Overall, this feature is quite handy for segregating and storing CRM data in SharePoint.
